General Information

We advise you to wear hats and sunglasses, also use sunscreen and use mosquito repellent in the evenings. If you are sailing at the end of the summer season, then bring light trousers, a jumper and a jacket, as the evenings can be cool and the probability of rain is higher.

It is better to travel with “soft” bags so that they can be easily stored after unpacking. However, if you only have hard suitcases, then we will be happy to store them on the beach for you.

If you need any assistance in organizing your trip or providing information, please contact us and we will be happy to book a taxi, etc.
